Safety Alerts

Due to safety concerns Energex has imposed an operating ban on all energised Stemar/JUNG DTL RF 250 CFS Units and Stemar/JUNG DTL RF 400 CFS Units. A replacement program has commenced on the identification of these models throughout our distribution area.

Stemar/JUNG DTL RF 250 CFS Units and Stemar/JUNG DTL RF 400 CFS Units have been found with broken cir-clips that are installed on the switch contacts. There is a likelihood that the cir-clips could break and fall across the live terminals when being operated or disturbed and cause an explosion.

Stemar/JUNG DTL RF 250 CFS Units and Stemar/JUNG DTL RF 400 CFS Units are mostly installed as combination fuse switches for the connection point of larger 3 phase installations where an underground service cable terminates within a customer's premises, such as near a main switchboard. They may also be found in service pillars as the connection point for individual customers and in link pillars on the underground electricity network. These CFS units can be installed either horizontally or vertically within a pillar box.

In the interest of safety, and to comply with the operating ban on this equipment, Electrical Contractors are advised that the operation or interference with any part of these Energex CFS units is not permitted.

These CFS units have been widely used for many years. To accelerate the process of Energex replacing this equipment, all Electrical Contractors and Electricians are urged to call the Electrical Contractor Line on 1300 762 397 to report the location and model of any Stemar/JUNG CFS units identified at a site.

Correct mounting of Meter Isolation Links (MILs)

Instances where electrical contractors have drilled through a brass terminal block and mounted the meter isolation link/s with metal screws have been reported across Queensland.

This creates a very dangerous situation where exposed live metal screws protrude through the meter panel; resulting in workers receiving an electric shock
